One state

"The following segment appeared on CBS' 60 Minutes this evening. The segment brings to light the fact that Israeli settlement activity has made a two-state solution impossible. It details the choices left to Israel today – ethnic cleansing of the remainder of Palestinians, a democratic state where all people enjoy freedom and equal rights, or apartheid where an Israeli minority rules over a Palestinian majority. The segment makes clear that apartheid already exists -- with Israeli settlers driving on better roads, using more water resources and enjoying freedom of movement." (Thanks Annie)
